Term life insurance with return of premium

Term life insurance has always been known as a “pure insurance” because it is strictly paid upon death with no cash value if left unused. Term life insurance is relatively inexpensive for this very reason. You are paying for peace of mind and protection, knowing your family would be financially secure upon your untimely death. In the event that you are still alive at the end of your “term,” any premiums paid over the years are basically gone. Ultimately, you paid for something you did not end up needing. Those who are unhappy with that notion typically end up buying other types of life insurance such as permanent life or whole life insurances. Unlike term life insurance , these two options are “owned” and develop cash value over the years. You can even borrow against some of the policies if you have accrued enough credit.


The beauty of term life as opposed to permanent or whole life is of course the lower premiums. Cash value policy premiums are significantly more costly. Because many applicants were unhappy that they had to choose one or the other (no cash value versus something that offers some type of savings account), many insurance carriers developed a happy medium. This new offering is called Term Insurance with Return of Premium (ROP).


Benefits of Term Life with ROP


Term Life Insurance with Return of Premium (ROP) actually has more in common with forms of permanent life insurance than with true term life with a pure death benefit.


A Term life insurance with ROP policy offers partial or complete return of premiums in a lump sum if the insured is still alive at the end of the guaranteed level period, usually 15, 20 or 30 years. As with traditional term life, if the insured dies during the term, the death benefit is paid as with traditional term life insurance without a return of premium.


Term life with ROP works almost the exact same way as any other cash value policy. Premiums on this type of policy are much more costly because policy owners are refunded the premiums paid over the term if said policy owner is still alive. Like permanent life insurance, extra premiums are set aside in a savings account accumulating to an amount of money equal to the premium paid by the end of the term. While Term life with ROP serves as a type of savings account, keep in mind that the return is substantially less than other investment arenas such as stock potentials.


Aside from acting like permanent life insurance in terms of being a savings vehicle, some ROP products also allow loans on a percentage of accumulated premiums already paid. ROP policies are appealing to people who lead healthy lifestyles as they believe they will live past the term and receive the large refunded sum. Healthy owners of the ROP products plan to apply their lump sum amounts toward future expenses, such as college tuitions, weddings, opening a business, trips or a house down payment.


Check with your financial advisor if you think Term life insurance with Return of Premium might be the right choice for you. You may also obtain an online quote in minutes.

You should have great online credit card choices and information

Our lifestyle today can be hectic and fast-paced, which limits our time, to accomplish our daily activities. That makes our need for e-commerce and technology more necessary than ever. Their combined power makes it easy to apply for a credit card online. If you have decided to apply online for a card, you will fill in an application form at the website of the credit card company. When you do, there are a few things you may want to consider as you apply for your new card:


1. The website should give you access to credit cards from all major banks including: Chase, Discover, CitiBank, American Express, Advanta...


2. The website should allow you to make credit card comparisons.


3. Information about each credit card should be explained in detail so you know the apr, balance transfer fees, cash advance fees, fixed apr, annual fees and so on.


4. You should make sure the website you visit is professionally designed and has the card applications on a webpage starting with "https". "Https" in the url means the website is secured by a reputable company.


5. You may also want to consider the type of card you want to have, i. e. gas card, airline card, reward card...


The application form you will fill out online is very similar to the one you would fill out at the bank, and the application processing method is basically the same. Credit card issuers encourage you to apply for credit cards online so they may save money on salaries, customer service, time, paper and more. Plus, when you apply online for a credit card, your information smoothly flows into the database of the credit card issuer. Usually, this leads to faster processing of your credit card application and often if you apply online for a credit card, the card you applied for will arrive to your mailbox much faster than it would arrive if you had applied in person for a card. Further, if you apply online for a credit card, you do not waste time physically approaching one credit card company at a time, instead you can compare many different cards and card issuers at one website. That will save you a great deal of time finding the right credit card.


Applying for a credit card online is a great way to get a credit card, however when you compare cards make sure you choose the one that will benefit you most.

Using a montana company for debt relief consolidation

Some people get deep into debt but do not have to immediately begin selling the farm or even worrying about it because they are still able to make the monthly payments on their outstanding amounts. Although any type of debt can be stressful, do not listen to claims by companies that any type of debt should be dealt with through a method such as debt relief consolidation. These companies will often dangle carrots in front of the consumer, promising lower interest rates and removing penalties and bringing your credit account back up, all through the concept of debt consolidation through a loan. Remember, though, that a debt loan is still a loan, and that debt relief consolidation does not mean that your financial burden is gone; it merely exists in another form.


The consolidation company is trying to get you to borrow money (only this time it's THEIR money) in order to pay off your outstanding bills and consolidate those bills into one area. If you are so in debt that you need to take this drastic step, it is imperative that you choose wisely from among the myriad companies that are out there. The Right company should not only provide you with the loan to consolidate, but should also offer you sound advice in debt management and keeping out of debt in the future. If you are already drowning in debt, then a debt consolidation loan might be something you should avoid.


People living in Montana might find themselves with no other option than to take out a debt consolidation loan. Residents of this state can take advantage of the many Montana-based companies who offer credit repair options that help residents repair their credit score and start afresh. The best reason for choosing a local company is that they are owned, operated, and employ citizens of the same state who are well versed in the local economy, the political and law making picture, the legal issues that come up in debt management, and with the social opportunities in the state. As with any such company, make sure that you choose from among the options with discretion in order that you are not taken advantage of.

You can get a credit card

Believe it or not, even if you have bad credit you will be able to get your very own credit card, albeit it would be a little bit harder than the usual.


The following are tips and advice to help you get a credit card even if you have not so good credit.


Apply small at first


It is a good idea to initially apply for credit cards at small retail shops and stores. Usually, such small companies are a lot more open to giving creditors a chance compared to those large outlets.


Once your application for a credit card is accepted, and once you make a purchase, try – as much as possible - to pay the least minimum amount each month and try to pay on or before the due date.


Take note that if you pay a bit more than the minimum amount required, the interest charge you have to pay will not be as much.


Do not be afraid to go to the bank


It is always a good idea to go to the saving or lending institution of your choice. They could be willing to offer you your own credit card especially if your business is already theirs.


If everything else fails, it is always a good idea to go for a credit card that is secured. This process requires you to maintain, open an account for savings as this will be used as a security for your credit line.


The credit line that will be given to you will actually come from the percentage of your own deposit.


Pay on time every time


In the process of acquiring your own credit card, always remember to continuously pay for all the other bills you have, as scheduled. This saves you the effort and money of paying unnecessary interest charges, surcharges and delayed payment rates.


Do not hog credit cards


It is always advisable to keep not more than two credit cards. One is enough, two is too much and three is just a crowd in your wallet as well as in your head as you have to make a way to pay off any charges incurred on it.


Credit cards make it easy enough to charge anything and everything. It is a temptation on plastic. Take note that having one credit card would make you an easy target for other credit card offers.


Think wise and be smart


Two credit cards are more than enough, with one having a lot larger credit limit and would probably come in handy for any financial emergencies.


It is also best to use credit cards that come from the more generally accepted credit card companies such as Amex, MasterCard, Visa, Discover, etc.


Believe it or not, there are credit cards that do not require you to pay annual fees. Use these credit cards as you will save a lot.


If still denied


If in case you are still denied by a lending institution, the law requires that such an institution tell you the reason why you were denied credit.


Try to request for a copy of your own credit report and check for yourself what the details indicated.


Overspending is not a good idea


Utilize credit cards wisely. Never overspend. Use cards like you would cash, cautiously and wisely. Buy stuff you know you could afford to pay.


All in all, there are a lot of cards which has an interest rate that range anywhere between eighteen percent to twenty one percent.


If you have difficulty paying your monthly balance, you are probably spending more money than you could afford to pay.

Credit card counseling

There are always things in life that are outside of our control. Sometimes you have to buy something you don't have the money for. At times like this, having a credit card can be pretty nice. But it's not so nice once the bill comes. Sometimes you can't help but use your credit card. You may need some advice on how to better maintain your finances. Luckily, there are a number of ways you can improve your situation.


The first thing you should do is give your credit card company a call. Most companies have toll-free customer service numbers. When you speak to the customer service representative ask if you can get a lower interest rate on your account. In minutes, they can tell you if you are eligible for this service. It's an easy way to rein-in your mounting balances.


There are a number of websites that offer to help with your credit card debt. They can either give you advice that can help you get back on track, or help you find a low-interest debt consolidation loan. Certain websites can link you live to a representative who can walk you through the steps of getting your debt under control. There are also several books and tapes that offer advice on eliminating debt. You can purchase these online.


Whether it's online or in person, credit counseling can help you to establish good financial habits. It will help you to figure out where you went wrong and what you can do to make it better. The services will work with your current creditors to get your interest, and possibly even payments, lowered. Credit card counseling can help you get your credit score back up and keep it there.


Most credit counseling is free. Come equipped with your financial information, a list of your creditors, and the amounts of your debt. A good counselor will help you work out a plan that suits you situation and decreases your debt one step at time.

Top 7 steps to take when choosing a home loan

Your home loan is almost as important as the home you choose. Small changes on paper – Ѕ% here, Ѕ% there – can mean BIG changes to your monthly payment, and thousands of dollars over the lifetime of your loan. Today, it seems as though there are thousands of mortgage brokers & lenders in every market – and there are! Unless your brother, sister, Dad, or best friend are a mortgage broker (and sometimes even when they are) your lender might not always be the most competent, or have your best interests in mind. Here are 7 easy steps to take when looking for a home loan.


1) It Pays to Shop!


There are thousands of mortgage brokers in any market, and hundreds of loan programs that each broker will usually have access to. Each loan program fills a niche – a special financial situation that you may or may not belong to. High credit score with no verifiable income, mediocre credit score with verifiable income, high credit score without rental history, etc… The list goes on and on! You need to make sure that you find a mortgage broker who knows their loan programs, and can find you the best program that matches your unique financial situation. The more brokers that you talk to, the more loan programs that you will expose yourself to – and the better chance that you’ll find the perfect fit, and rate.


2) Pick out the TERMS of the loan you want BEFORE you compare rates.


There are many different terms of home loans. The first is the length of the loan – 30 Year, 40 Year, even 50 Year – and sometimes Interest Only! An Interest Only loan is a loan that you never have to pay off – you only have to make the monthly interest payments. The second is the length of the rate – you can have a guaranteed rate for 30 years, or any period from 1 to 7 years. Loans with a guaranteed rate for 1-7 years are called Adjustable Rate Mortgages (ARMs) because the rate will adjust up or down with the market after the guaranteed rate period is over. The safest loan is a 30-year fixed rate mortgage. You should also be aware of a pre-payment penalty – this is a pretty substantial penalty should you decide to refinance the loan or sell the house within a certain period of time. One to two year pre-payment penalties are common, and sometimes the loan will have a longer pre-payment penalty.


3) Shop the rate and closing costs – and make sure you’re comparing apples to apples.


Now that you know the terms you want, it’s time to shop the rate. The best idea is to have one mortgage broker pull a tri-merge credit report and then ask that broker for a copy of the credit report. While it’s not supposed to “ding your credit” every time a mortgage broker requests it, it sometimes does. Have a copy of your credit report, a copy of your bank statements, and a copy of your tax returns with you when you visit with any mortgage broker, and know the price range you’re shopping for. Answer all questions honestly and tell the broker exactly what terms you want in the loan. The mortgage broker should then provide you with a Good Faith Estimate (GFE) based on your request. If you’d like to, you can ask for two GFE’s – ask for one with minimal closing costs and another with the standard closing costs. Typically, a mortgage broker can get you a slightly higher interest rate with fewer closing costs.


4) Compare your Good Faith Estimates’ Total Monthly Payment.


Your good faith estimate will have an estimate of your TOTAL monthly payment. The easiest thing to do would be to compare the GFEs’ Total Monthly Payment and choose the lowest. However, you have to remember that the Mortgage Brokers are each estimating what your hazard insurance, taxes, Homeowner’s Association Dues will be – which they have no control over. Some Mortgage Brokers underestimate these fees in order to make their GFEs look more attractive, and then explain away the higher monthly payment because “they have no control over those fees.” Another easy way would be comparing interest rate. However, sometimes loans are broken up into 80/20 loans – the 80% loan at a lower interest rate and the 20% loan at a slightly higher interest rate – but with no Mortgage Insurance. Likewise, some loans are one 100% loan with Mortgage Insurance. To compare apples to apples with regards to the Total Monthly Payment, take the line item costs that are associated with the loan and compare only those. These costs will be Principal, Interest, and Mortgage Insurance (or PMI). Whichever loan program has the lowest Principal, Interest, and Mortgage Insurance is going to be the best monthly payment for you.


5) Compare Your Good Faith Estimates’ Closing Costs.


Just like the total monthly payment, your Good Faith Estimates will have estimates of the Total Closing Costs involved with purchasing the house. And, just like Total Monthly Payment, some Mortgage Brokers will underestimate these costs in order to make their GFEs look more attractive, and then explain away at closing. In order to truly compare “apples to apples” with closing costs, you need to look at the closing costs associated with the loan. Now, this can get rather confusing because Mortgage Brokers & Lenders LOVE to give different names to different fees. The bottom line is, if it’s associated with the loan, then it’s something that they potentially have control over. In Texas, take all the fees in the “800” lines of your GFE – they should be labeled “Items Payable in Connection With Loan” – and add them together. Compare all of the GFEs’ “Items Payable in Connection With Loan” charges and pick out which program has the lowest fees.


6) Take Into Account Closing Costs AND Rate.


What happens if one loan has higher closing costs but a lower rate? Another program looks like it has much cheaper closing costs but a higher rate? It’s time to take into account how long the cheaper monthly payment will take to “make up” the higher closing costs. Does one program have $100/month lower payments with $1000 higher in closing costs? It would take 10 months to “make up” the higher closing costs – I would suggest taking the lower payment. Does one program have $10/month lower payments with $1000 higher in closing costs? It would take 100 months to “make up” that difference, and it’s probably not worth it to take the cheaper rate.


7) Lock Your Rate!!!


Rates DO fluctuate and are subject to change – until you lock your rate. You will typically want to lock your rate 30-45 days before closing. If you try to lock longer than that, the lender will typically penalize your rate. The bottom line is, after you’ve made this difficult decision, make sure that you lock in your choice!


The decision to purchase a home be rather intimidating and can seem very complex. The decision on your mortgage can be just as intimidating, and is just as important as the home you choose. If you take a step back and look at the situation in a systematic way, you will feel confident that you have made the best decision – and you will have!

Are variable rate credit cards better

When you shop for a credit card, you will be considering variable rate credit cards and fixed rate credit cards. A variable rate credit card uses the prime lending rate as its benchmark. Each lender then adds his own interest percentage and offers the variable rate credit card to his customer. Look at it this way – as soon as there is an increase in the interest rates of the Federal Reserve, the bank rates also go up.


The best situation to go in for a credit card with variable rates is when you notice that the prime lending rate dips steadily. That is when variable rate credit cards are a good option, since you enjoy the benefit of low lending rates.


However, don’t confuse the interest rate of variable rate credit cards with introductory offers made to you. These offers are only to attract you and expire after a specific period, say two months or four months. Subsequent to this, your variable rate credit card will attract a higher rate of interest. So don’t make these special offers a basis for your decision while looking for a credit card with variable rates.


Factors that could influence the interest rate of your credit card


When you are looking for a credit card with variable rates, your personal credit score and rating as well as your current income will influence the lenders’ decision. Accordingly you can look at standard cards, silver cards, gold cards, platinum cards and titanium cards – with the hierarchy of the card ascending from standard to titanium. So your eligibility for any of these variable rate credit cards is directly related to how good your credit history is, since interest rates are highest for standard cards and lowest for titanium cards.


In a variable rate credit card, the interest rate is likely to fluctuate periodically. Some credit card issuers can tell you how low or how high the interest rates are likely to vary so that you can decide upon your variable rate credit card based on this. If this fluctuation is still advantageous to you, as compared to a fixed rate credit card, you may consider a variable rate credit card.


No credit card is immune to interest rate fluctuation. Since variable rate credit card interest rates are based on the prevailing market rates, you’ve got to watch out constantly to see if it is a good option for you; if not you may want to look for another variable rate credit card where the issuer gives you a better deal. It is a very competitive market out there.

Earning rewards with business credit cards

It's not just personal credit card holders who can get fancy rewards and incentives. Business credit card holders can benefit from rewards too. Here are some rewards that business credit card holder might use to benefit their businesses and themselves.


Get Big Business Discounts


Having a business credit card or charge card means that you can often get discounts off goods and services. This can be as much as one-third off the normal cost, which means big savings for your business. It's worth looking at information from individual suppliers to see what discounts you might qualify for. There may also be rebates on the purchase of certain products. That means more money going back into the business.


Driver Incentives


Some of the discounts may apply to petrol, possibly in the form of rebates. Some business credit cards or charge cards offer discounts on car hire, which may be a great saving if business employees travel a lot. Many card issuers also offer worldwide emergency cover and travel assistance. This can give peace of mind when employees are travelling on business.


Travel Discounts


Travelling on business can be a different experience for business credit card holders. Some credit cards offer help with itineraries and bookings, emergency assistance and free travel accident insurance. Some travel incentives also cover public transport in the countries where you travel on business.


Travel discounts might also cover phone calls from abroad, as many card issuers have deals with telephone service providers. This can be a big saving for the business owner who wants regular telephone or email updates from employees. Best of all, some business card accounts offer preferential foreign exchange rates and upgrades to seats and lounges that can make business travel a pleasurable experience.


Points Of Interest


Some business card issuers also have reward programmes similar to those offered for personal credit cards. Business card holders can earn air miles or other travel points, nectar points or other reward points. These are usually awarded at anywhere between one and four points per pound spent. Where this adds up is when company employees are also using business credit cards. The business owner earns points for all of their transactions too and can soon have a large store of points to use on further rewards.


Other Reasons To Have A Business Credit Card


But business credit cards are not just about rewards. They are also useful because of the administrative time they can save. Instead of spending long hours tracking expenditure, business owners can let card issuers do it for them. Monthly statements contain itemised lists of all spending and some card accounts allow spending to be categorised. They may also provide an annual reckoning of business spending for tax purposes.


With all of these advantages, having a business credit card seems to be a good choice for many businesses. However, it is not the only option for improving cash flow. Business owners should also look at debit cards, charge cards and business loans as other options for financing their business.

Protect credit card numbers at all costs

Owning a credit card is a true benefit for most individuals. Credit cards allow people to purchase items, both large and small, without the need to pay with cash. Credit cards also allow consumers to purchase expensive items that may not be affordable without the ability to pay gradually.


Credit cards do have many positive aspects. Not only have they helped advance the economy, but they have also improved ability for people to buy things they want and need. However, there is a certain amount of responsibility that credit card owners must accept so that they do not get into credit card trouble. The most obvious responsibility of a credit card owner is to make sure to not accumulate too much credit card debt. Yet, it is also extremely important to make sure to keep credit card numbers safe and secure.


Most people who watch television news or read local or national newspapers on a regular basis have heard about increased incidences of credit card number theft. This is a huge problem which is becoming more and more prevalent as people are increasing the frequency they use credit cards both in person an electronically over the Internet.


Following are some easy ways to help protect personal credit card numbers. Most of these tips are based on common sense, but they are all important to re-emphasize again and again.


Sign It


Many people receive new credit cards in the mail and without signing them, stick them in their wallets. This is not a good idea. If those wallets are stolen or lost, anybody can take the credit cards and forge signatures on them, making it very easy to use the credit cards before they are reported lost or stolen.


Don't Give Numbers to Strangers


It seems so obvious that it's not a good idea to give credit card numbers to complete strangers, but individuals do it all the time. When a solicitor calls on the telephone offering to sell something or asking for a donation, there are many unsuspecting individuals who willingly give their credit card information to the caller, not truly knowing who is on the other end of the phone. A good rule of thumb is to only use credit cards over the phone when the credit card holder initiates the call.


Get the Right Card Back


It's extremely common for a waiter in a restaurant to handle several credit cards at any given time, and to accidentally return the wrong credit card with a receipt to the incorrect person. Unfortunately in restaurants, many people do not take a few seconds to check and make sure they've put their own credit card into their wallet, and then they discover the mistake hours or even days later.


Shred Receipts and Statements


It has been increasingly uncommon for receipts from credit card purchases to show an entire credit card number. However, some still do and these receipts can cause potential problems for credit card holders. In addition to receipts, credit card statements normally do include entire account numbers, which can make it easy for potential credit card number thieves to obtain information. Knowing this, it's important to shred all paper (receipts, account statements, and any other document containing credit card information) prior to throwing it in the trash can.


Check Statements Carefully


Some people's credit card numbers have unknowingly been stolen from them, and the only way they find out is by carefully checking monthly credit card statements for unauthorized charges. Anyone who does not check credit card statements with a fine tooth comb every month may be paying for charges they never made. While this practice is not exactly a tactic for avoiding credit card number theft, it is a good idea on how to stop it if it does occur.


It's is the responsibility of credit card owners to do everything possible to ensure that their credit card numbers remain protected and private. This can usually be accomplished by following good common sense and adhering to simple tips on how to keep credit card information concealed as carefully as possible.

Some companies would require you to invest as low as five dollars while some can ask for as high as five hundred dollars for upfront payments. Forex systems greatly vary, and it depends largely on the company offering such service.


With the system, you can purchase companies, stocks, and make investments even in other places. You can enhance your wealth and personal preferences by investing in a forex trading system. By investing a certain amount of money, you can make even more money in the future.

The trading system can be offline or online. You are free to choose which system will work best for you. However, online trading systems are gaining more and more popularity because you have easy access to the money that you've invested. Offline trading systems usually involves a lot of paperwork; while with an online system, you can instantly invest, trade, move, and remove money faster.


All it takes is for you to learn about the investment, and how to trust the right brokers in case you may need to make additional decisions in the future. You must be involved with a company which you can communicate with any time during a business day. That particular company should be able to provide you with a telephone number, fax number, and email address. Steer clear from companies which do not disclose such information.


Without the right trading system, you can't trade effectively. Therefore you must choose a system which is suited for you as an individual. You must consider the trading style and the risk that it involves. A system which focuses more in risk and money management techniques is a good one. Look for a company who has been in business for many years and those with proven professional experience. It must also provide you with tools and strategies that will help you in developing your very own online trading system. If you select the right company, you can find one that is of best value for your money.


Choosing a good, and probably the best, forex trading system is one of the first things that you should learn in forex. There are three factors usually considered in choosing a forex trading system, namely: profitability, acceptability, and one that fits your daily routine.


Profitability is probably the most important consideration. People invest money to make profits, and a good system should provide that. It is shown in dollar amounts or pips/month.


Every system has a drawdown, and it is also expressed in pips. It is the biggest decrease in equity in the past. In comparing different systems, you should take a close look on its historical drawdown.


Also check for the systems profit and loss ration, as well as its win and loss ratio. The system should have consistency and you can effectively tell this by looking into their monthly or quarterly, and yearly results.


Once you've chosen a system, learn all about it, and you can expect to gain a lot from your investment.

As the hedge fund world becomes bigger and bigger as more and more hot money seeks the elusive alpha of maximum performance, it is becoming apparent that more and more newspaper space will be devoted to hedge funds, and private equity. Recent news has taken us into the inner sanctum of Bear Stearns, truly a dominant investment firm in the world today. It might be argued that Bear Stearns is the best managed Wall Street firm in existence. Some might say Goldman Sach’s. In any event Bear Stearns would have to be on the short list.


Investment firms for almost a decade sat by and watched hedge funds form, and amass vast investment capital pools while successfully charging 2% management fees, and 20% of the profits. Some of these hedge funds in a few years, have grown to possess capital bases equal to that of investment banking firms that have been around for generations. Taking some of the risks that were involved to achieve this performance is now coming home to roost.


Bear Stearns is the latest firm to stub its toe in the hedge fund industry. The firm is FAMOUS for quantifying and judging RISK before making its bets. This time however it seems that Bear Stearns threw its usual caution to the wind in embracing the formation of two hedge funds over the last year or so.


The second hedge fund was considered a more highly-leveraged version of Bear’s High – Grade structured Credit Strategies fund which was formed last year. Both funds were managed by Ralph Cioffi, who up until recent events took hold, had the reputation of being a MASTER at this game, and the game is the subprime mortgage bond business.


Most people are not aware of it but Bear Stearns is the finest fixed income trading firm on the planet bar none, and this has been true for several generations. This makes recent events even more perplexing to understand.


Jimmy Cayne who is Bear’s CEO is embarrassed at the very least, and certainly upset enough that there will be major changes in the leadership of the units responsible for the pain being inflected on the firm’s reputation. This should not have happened at Bear Stearns, that’s the point.


Actions Taken and Implications


Mr. Cayne has made the decision to inject $3.2 billion of Bear Stearns capital into a bail-out of the older fund. Bear is also negotiating with the banks that put up the credit facility for the other fund, the highly leveraged High-Grade Enhanced Leveraged fund. What Bear is trying to prevent is the forced sale of the debt obligations underlying the fund’s investments. These issues trade by appointment as they say, which means they rarely trade at all. Bear knows the Street smells blood, and will take advantage of any weakness that Bear shows.


So what are the implications of this latest hedge fund debacle? It clearly shows that the most sophisticated investors on the planet who put their money into hedge funds may in fact have NO IDEA what they are investing in. Instead, they are betting on the institutional reputation of the firms standing in back of the hedge funds. In this case nobody knew more about this market segment than Bear Stearns, yet they caught in a terrible position.


This is not Cayne’s fault, but as CEO, it is always his responsibility. I believe him to be the finest Wall Street executive of his generation. Nevertheless, his underlings certainly let him down, and they are among the highest paid people in the world today. Some of these industry veterans are drawing $10 million dollar annual incomes. Let the investor beware is the rule of the day, especially when it comes to hedge funds.


But Wait – There’s More


The average hedge fund uses about six to one leverage in order to obtain the performance success we have become accustomed to seeing in the hedge fund world. Investors in Bear Stearns’ fund called Enhanced Leverage put up about $638 million of their own money. The fund was then able to borrow about 10 times that amount. They used repo-financing and a credit facility at the Barclay’s Bank.


Enhanced Leverage then went out and invested about $11.5 billion in both bonds and various and assorted bank debts on the long side. On the short side, they had about $4.5 billion through credit default swaps. These transactions were originated on the ABX Index, all of which were tied into subprime mortgage bonds.


I know you are asking how it all came undone. What happened is that the underlying bonds of the whole market segment are what you could call the subprime market came undone. Back in February, this hurt Bear’s two funds. The funds and the hedges laid on by Bear went under water in March simultaneously. The hedges should have performed when the market worsened, and they didn’t. That was the killer. The hedges did not do what they were supposed to do.


In late May, Bear knew they had to do something. What Bear chose to do was close down the redemption process. In other words, not allow any investors to withdraw their remaining funds, which would create a run on the hedge fund. This is similar to Franklin Roosevelt closing down the banks in 1933, to prevent a run on the banks from taking place.


The banks who lent the money to the Bear Stearns sponsored funds quickly began selling down the securities in the funds in an attempt to back into some kind of positive equity balance. This was all the result of margin calls brought about the funds’ poorly performing, and now distressed investments. Bear finally agreed to a bail-out of one of the funds injecting $3 plus billion dollars into the fund. The firm as of now will not rescue the other fund, known as Enhanced Leverage.


In our opinion, Bear will not be the last firm to experience problems with hedge funds, and investors are in for a further rude awakening as the hedge fund industry continues along its under-regulated path of seeking maximum investment performance. Many hedge funds are overextending, and frankly have no idea as to their actual open positions in the financial world.


Bear and nobody is better than Bear says it will be another week or two before it knows the extent of the losses of its investors in these two funds. If that is true of the best managed risk taking firm in the world today, how much confidence can you have in the hundreds of other hedge funds out there that are poorly managed compared to the legendary Bear Stearns.?


The answer is you’d better sleep with your pants on, if you think your money is safe in the hedge fund world. You think you’re sleeping on a nice warm bed. What you don’t realize is that the bed is sitting on a railroad track with a 100 mile per hour train bearing down on you. The problem with hedge funds is the leverage. Six to one is normal, and then you get the ones that go crazy and start approaching 10 to 1 leverage in the race for performance. It’s great when the market is on your side, but when the market goes against you; these entities literally go out of business.


Warren Buffett has always talked about being able to sleep at night with your investments. He also talks about what would happen if you wound up in a coma, and woke up 10 years later? Would the investments you made ten years ago still be good, or not? Would you like to wake up from a coma, owning hedge fund investments for the previous ten years, maybe yes, maybe no, but as an investor, you better be able to answer that question?

How to escape the illusion of a happy retirement

Most of us were told to stay in school and get a good education. After that, it was “find a decent job, work hard, and then enjoy a safe and quiet retirement.” However, statistics show that only a fraction of us truly enjoy their retirement, for the following reasons:


* Not enough retirement money


* Cut off from the creative work place


* To old to do what you really wanted to do


* Health problems


50 years ago working at a company was safe; however, this concept is completely outdated in our fast-growing information age. Nowadays, you’d better watch out; your workplace might be monitored as to whether you could be replaced by something cheaper, or even worse, completely automated. Today, productivity and expanding profits for shareholders are almost the only forces that drive corporations and companies. You as a worker are just a small wheel in the gear box, which at any moment could be re-assembled with fewer parts.


Knowing this causes fear. Many would rather work while sick than risk losing their job. For some, the pressure becomes almost unbearable, and there is no light at the end of the tunnel. To compound the problem, we shop, spending more money on things we don’t need, in the illusion of gaining a few hours or days of happiness. Shopping becomes our daily mantra. Someone once said, “we do things we don’t like, to buy stuff we don’t need.” Instead of connecting with our spiritual force, we connect with our money. The outcome is stagnation.


How to Get Out of This Disaster?


Better yet, what can we do to avoid it in the first place? Realize that you are a spiritual being who creates your human experience, not the other way around. Even if you don’t know it, you have chosen this lifetime to have certain experiences. You chose a spiritual path before you came to this earth. You are not only your body. You are not only your mind and thoughts.


If there is anything that is important in your life, it is finding out who you are. If you devote enough time, you will find an answer. The answer may surprise you, and you may not be able to share it with anyone; however, knowing who you are is the key to making this life the way you planned it from the beginning.


It is part of our task in life to reconnect with a spiritual path. Nature gives us a body, but no owner’s manual. It seems that at a certain time in life, you discover the ability to connect with your spirituality. At birth, you are like a construction set for a radio; over time, you assemble yourself, and when you’re done and all the parts are connected correctly, you are able to transmit and receive signals to and from the universe.


Using your ‘radio’ is the most powerful instrument you can imagine. The connections you can make are unlimited. You can send and receive from every other person in this universe, no matter where this person is located. Some call it the soul; scientists talk about the inter-connectedness of everything.


Quantum physics even proves that we are all connected with each other and we are all made out of the same substance. This conclusion goes as far as assuming that there is only one mind, in various forms. When you have a thought, it may not be yours. And when you think, it may have not originated from inside yourself.


To have a fulfilled life, you’ll want to find the answer to who you are, as quickly as possible. Why? Because if you do, you’ve found the owner’s operating manual. And having that, you just follow the instructions and use your mind and feelings accordingly.


The Difference Between Knowing And Experiencing


The best part is that you find the confidence that comes from taking the right path. It is a path you don’t need to think about; it is given. It is like the difference between someone describing the taste of an apple to you, and actually eating the apple. If you were told how an apple tastes, and you’d never tasted one, you would only have others’ interpretations to go by. In this scenario, you’re at the mercy of others, and there is much room for confusion.


The moment you taste the apple, you know how it tastes. This knowing is fundamental and nobody can take it away. It is your own experience. Even if 10,000 people now tried to convince you how that apple tastes, you would not even bother to listen to them, as your knowledge has become your truth.


This evening, turn off the TV and sit quietly, thinking about your life for 30 minutes:


* Do I like what I am doing in my life?


* Do I live my full potential?


* Am I happy with what I am doing?


* Is there something I like to do but have put off for a long time?


Find your strength; understand that you are unique. There is no other person on earth the same as you. If you are not aware of this, start finding out right now.


The moment you understand and experience your uniqueness, you must live your life in a extraordinary way. Everything else is a lie. This unique way is the dream that you always wanted to live. Allow yourself, for a moment at least, to think about this dream and explore it. Your mind may reject it at first; just review it - nothing bad will happen. You are just exploring it in your mind. Doing this exercise, you are connecting with your life dream, your path to walk on this earth.


Now you have two choices; either you explore more of your dream, and maybe start going into details, or, you allow fear to take over and dismiss your beautiful dream. Your first choice will lead to being more alive, the second choice leads to death. No, I don’t mean physical death - you won’t die; however, your life force, and everything that makes life worthwhile, withers.


It is not important how long you live on this earth. Time is an illusion. You can have a fulfilled life in this very moment, when you are in touch with your life dream. This can be so powerful that this moment feels eternal to you. Everything is realized in this moment and there is nothing to accomplish - it is the perfect moment; you are experiencing life to its fullest.


Imagine: What would your life be if you would stay connected with your life’s dream in every single moment?

Picking and choosing student credit cards

Are you a concerned parent having a troubled time trying to decide whether or not to give your son or daughter the access to plastic money? Do you think perhaps son or daughter may not be able to manage their finance well? Well, you fears are not completely baseless. Plastic is a very important tool that you will need to you’re your kids. But your kids are vulnerable to the threats of financial crashes owing to their inexperience in managing finance. Many financial companies also hunt for such instances and operate in the logic of “catching them young”, so that it may mean some profit, getting hold of some off guard youngsters.


However, there are simple ways that will safe guard the interests of these youngsters. These are nothing but carefulness and precise decision-making, topped with a little value education being imparted on this naпve populace of youngsters. While many of the credit card companies will look for a chance to get the better from your ward, you can minimize the chances by selecting the right student credit card and helping your son or daughter manage his or her finance judiciously. After all, everything has a first time and no time can be better than college time, which is learning time.


In case you decide on giving your ward the access to plastic money, you have to make sure that you give them the best that is available. Remember, there is not a single best company for everyone. Everyone’s needs are different, so will be the credit cards you choose. Remember, if you feel that your ward cannot use a credit card wisely, the best option is not getting a credit card at all for him or her. However, in case you decide on affirmation, you should follow a few essential steps for best decision-making.


First, collect several applications from credit card companies, over a minimum duration of two or three months. You can begin with short-listing some applications from credit card companies that are near to your ward’s university or college. You can carry out a search online for companies issuing credit cards to get the best among deals. Get at least a set of ten options to choose from. Once you have done it, it is time to compare offers from several companies.


Comparing is the most crucial stage while opting for a credit card. Opt for the company offering minimum interest rates, low fee structure, good reward programs, low minimum balance, and so on. Also, check for reviews on the consumer websites and consider what the other consumers have to say about the company you are thinking about and about the company credentials. Try to avoid a credit card that will charge you an annual fee, because that will mean some unnecessary expense for you. Weigh your needs and only then do settle on a particular scheme or company. Avoid availing a credit card if you think you can do without it.


A student with plastic currency is comparable to a kid owning a car without license. Either he or she may end up winning a race, with proper practice, or he or she might get into a serious mess by bumping against a wall. Your role as a responsible parent starts here. The right choice of a student credit card and the proper guidance, here, is what you need. This will not only help your wards keep from wasting their resources, but also develop them into essentially responsible citizens. They will not only know where and why to spend, but also what, why and when to save.

Don t let your debt get the best of you - how a debt consolidation loan works

Many people work hard just to pay bills and increasingly a large part of these bills represents payments on loans. Multiple credit cards, lines of credit, store credit and other loans can create an unhealthy debt cocktail that can leave you reeling with a nasty headache. There can appear to be no answer to the amount of money you have to pay out every month but you obviously haven't considered using a low interest debt consolidation loan to lower your monthly costs and take control of your debt.


Spending large sums every month servicing debt can effectively mean you are working for nothing and can impose an enormous amount of stress on you and your family. A debt consolidation loan can work magic and alleviate this stress immediately. Once you combine all your separate debts into one low interest debt consolidation loan, you will feel the immediate benefits of having to find far less every month for debt payments, you will also have much more income at your disposal to meet other expenses.


High monthly payments are not the only stress associated with high debt, letters and phone calls from creditors if you are late with a payment can add a lot of additional stress and for some people can be the straw that broke the camels back, pushing them into bankruptcy or causing relationship breakdown.


A debt consolidation loan is a readily available solution that can free up more of your income every month for other things. There are many debt consolidation loan options such as a home equity loan if you have equity in your home (usually the lowest cost, and will therefore save you the most money), an unsecured personal loan or a low cost credit card. When faced with these decisions it can be enormously helpful to get the advice of a professional debt consultant who can help you choose the right debt consolidation loan for your needs.


Once you have made the decision and obtained your debt consolidation loan, cancel your credit cards and lines of credit so you will not be tempted to use them. The last thing you want is any more debt. It would also be helpful to create a budget and live within it to help you create long term financial stability. If you do these things the money you use will mainly go to support your family and you will be well on your way to financial success.

You don t pay commissions in forex trading

The Foreign Exchange market is the largest financial market in the world. In the US alone, it has a daily trading volumes of $1.2 trillion dollars, which outshines the stock, bond, and other commodity markets. But just what is currency trading or Forex trading, as it is more commonly known?


Forex trading is where you will buy one currency and sell another, or it may be a combination of a few different currencies in total. Your trading involves matching one currency against another. That is, you buy the Euro hoping it will rise against the U. S. Dollar. Which also means you hope the U. S. Dollar will fall against the value of the Euro. This does not mean you wish the U. S. Dollar bad tidings, it is just you are trading using economic information about the two currencies. You can do the same for the Swiss franc against the Japanese yen. Most people probably call this form of trading speculation. But consider that some individuals and groups make millions of dollars daily using the techniques available for trading in currencies.


You would usually do Forex trading using a margin. This means you leave a small deposit with your broker and can trade for many times the value of your deposit. For example, let's say you want to open a trade matching two currencies, and you want to trade for $5,000. You can make a deposit of $50 with your broker, and stand to gain much more than the $50 after you close the trade. You benefit from not using your own money but earning a tidy profit. Of course, you could lose on the trade, but your losses, would be no more than your deposit if you took the necessary precaution to exit the trade once you reached your margin.


You still need a broker as you do in the other markets. With Forex, your broker will open an account for you to make your trades. Different brokers stipulate different amounts you should deposit to your account. Some ask for just $50 to open an account, but you wouldn't trade much on such a small amount. Most brokers set margin at 3-5%, so if you want to open a trade for $10,000 you will need to have on deposit $300-$500. The great thing about Forex trading is that you do not pay a commission on your trades. But don't cry for the market makers just yet. They manage to recover their expenses and profit on all your trades, by picking up the spread between the two currencies you trade. The spread is the difference between the bid and ask prices of the two currencies.


While you may look at Forex trading as pure speculation, you have to consider that to succeed you need to understand the nature of chance as it applies to the market. You may get up one morning to hear the U. S. Dollar dipped against the Euro because exports to Europe fell sharply for the third consecutive quarter. If you take this information without doing further research and decide to trade the Euro against the U. S. Dollar, you are speculating. However, you do not have any solid proof the dollar will continue to fall against the Euro. Successful traders don't only digest the financial news, they also use other tools to decide how to trade.

How to get affordable car insurance in massachusetts

Almost every driver in Massachusetts is looking for affordable car insurance. And why not? You may have to purchase car insurance to drive a vehicle on a public road in Massachusetts, but there's no sense in over-paying for your insurance.


One of the surest ways of finding affordable car insurance in Massachusetts is to compare the prices of car insurance online. However, unless you know how to fill out the forms on the price comparison websites so that you create the lowest-priced car insurance policy to begin with you're really not going to save all that much money.


So let's take a look at some of the things you can do to create a low-priced policy.


Can you keep your car in a garage at night? If your car is not parked in the open, available to thieves and vandals, you will save money on your insurance each month.


Can you drive less? Taking public transportation for as much of your "driving" as possible could save you money in several ways, including lower car insurance. If you can keep your driving under 500 miles per month you may qualify for a Low Mileage Discount.


A portion of your premium is probably based on the fact that you drive back and forth to work everyday. If you could carpool and cut the number of days that you drive back and forth to work each month in half, the savings on your car insurance could be substantial.


If you stop working and stop driving to work and back at all you should definitely let your agent know.


Make automatic premium payments from your bank account each month. If your insurance company doesn't have to send out a bill each month they should reward you by giving you a small break on your insurance.


Some companies give you a hefty break on your insurance if you purchase even simple anti-theft devices such as a steering wheel lock or a device to disable your fuel pump unless you hit a secret switch. Ask your agent if installing such security devices will lower your insurance costs.


Find group car insurance. Often you can purchase low-cost group car insurance at your place of work. If not, see if any clubs or organizations or groups that you belong to offer their members group car insurance. If not, ask family and friends if they belong to any groups or associations that offer members low cost group car insurance - if so, see about joining.


If you are married put the wife on the policy as the primary driver and the husband as the secondary driver. Women pay less for car insurance and setting up your policy in this way will save you money every month.


If you have towing or car rental through AAA or through a credit card, then there is no need to pay for it each month as part of your car insurance.


Young drivers should stay in school and keep their grades up. A "B" or better grade should earn you a minimum 5% Good Student Discount.


Older drivers can sometimes get a break on their insurance if they take a special driver's refresher course. Talk to your agent and see if your company offers this discount.


Older cars that have little or no Kelly Blue Book value should be removed from any comprehensive or collision coverage. In fact, your vehicle loses value each year and you should be decreasing your collision and comprehensive coverage to match your car's declining value.


Increase your deductible. This is a sure-fire way to lower your monthly car insurance premium, but care must be taken that you don't increase your deductible to the level that you can't afford to pay it if you should have a claim.


Finally you'll want to find at least 3 websites that encourage you to compare the prices of car policies from different insurance companies. Using everything you have learned from this article you should fill out the forms on a minimum of 3 different websites. But be careful that you fill out all three forms in exactly the same way so that your comparisons have some value.


Once you've done this then all that's left is for you to choose the lowest-priced policy and smile, smile, smile, since you now know exactly how to get affordable car insurance in Massachusetts and save money month after month!
